Just giving an update after posting up that I was going to buy this car. Sorry for the crappy camera phone pics, it's all I have until I buy a new camera. Here's what it looked like when I bought it:
 And here's what it looks like after some time with the buffer, rollbar install, and finishing the Lotus seat conversion. The only panels I couldn't get to polish up were the license surround and the mirrors. It's definitely a 10-foot car with the burn marks someone put on the edges trying to buff it before, but at least it has some shine. I wish I had taken progress pics but I just got so into getting it cleaned up I didn't want to stop. Used Meguiar's M205 polish, Finish Kare 1000p and 2865 "pink stuff" waxes. The interior is still a work in progress getting cleaned up, new shifter boot, horn button, etc.

Oh man, that's a beautiful MX-5 and I really like that steering wheel, and the wheels. Great job, man!! I'm pretty sure that once Ferdi sees this, you'd have made him change out his underwear.

QUOTE (HectortheRican @ May 9, 2011 - 2:58 AM)  I'm pretty sure that once Ferdi sees this, you'd have made him change out his underwear. Nah, it'd have to be silver for that. Nonetheless, cool sh!t and I'm envious. Good luck with it.
